[78-L] classical stuff

[Christopher Steward]

Nevertheless postings about classical recordings are welcomed by some of us, at least. I should be very grateful for details of the Schubert Octet, which I haven't come across before.
Thanks, Chris

I realize that while there is an abundance of knowledge about classical recordings on this list, there isn't a huge amount of discussion about classical music here.  I have come across a lot of interesting facts about pop recordings during the last few years here but it really isn't a forum for indepth discussions on the classical side of things.
  Another set which arrived today is the Schubert Octet on, (once again), near mint Viva~Tonal discs.  I had never heard of this recording before and stretching as it does across 6 discs, it would have been a rather expensive purchase at the time.
